In China they symbolize love and female beauty, in Japan they symbolize the short and sweet nature of life. The pink of the cherry blossom is another reason that this tattoo is so popular amongst women.
Lotus Flowers
The lotus flower is also another very popular tattoo and it symbolizes purity. The lotus has deep meaning in Buddhism and Eastern culture because a lotus flower contains the seeds, roots, and petals at the same time. It is a beautiful design that looks perfect in color or in black and white.
Lily
The lily is not as common as other flower tattoos but is a flower rich in meaning. It can mean innocence, purity, happiness, and prosperity depending on the type of lily and its color.
